Dorgó Tokaji Late Harvest
- 2021
- 2017
Characteristics of the vintage
Great vintage for liquoreux wines. The budbreak, flowering and ripening were later than usual. After an extremely hot and dry June and July, August and September were cool helping to preserve a lot of acidity in the grapes. The botrytis arrived relatively late and developed slowly but steadily in a very noble way resulting in healthy, rich grapes with good acidity.
Harvest
Careful selection of entirely botrytised clusters or part of clusters from the Dorgó vineyard on the 22nd of October and the 23rd of November.
Vinification
Most of the grapes were full bunch pressed without destemming. Fermentation took place in stainless steel vats.
Maturing
The different batches were aged for an average of 8 months in oak barrels of two-three wines in the traditional underground cellar of Tokaj. After blending, the wine was kept in stainless steel vats until bottling. Bottled in May 2025.
Tasting notes
Light golden robe with green reflex. Fresh fruity nose with greengage, apricot, and lychee notes. The palate is fresh and juicy, medium-bodied with great acidity and a hint of elegant bitterness and salinity.

Seul ou avec des amuse-bouches, c'est l'apéritif idéal. Il peut s'accompagner de petits fours comme le prosciutto, les olives, les tomates séchées, ou des toasts de pâté. Il s'accordera également très bien avec des plats tels que les fruits de mer, le poisson, le poulet ou encore avec des plats légèrement épicés. Le fromage de chèvre et les desserts à base de fruit sont aussi un bon accord pour ce vin.
